What the King Diesel MT costs on the road
The price above is the sticker. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the King Diesel MT comes to ₹19,94,640 on the road in Itanagar and ₹22,76,088 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,81,448 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka highest. You pay it where you live, so take this as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as a way to save money.
Comprehensive own-damage cover is on top of both figures: it has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer, the cover value and your no-claim bonus, so no honest single number exists for it. Budget for it from real quotes.

The full story
At ₹18.86L ex-showroom Delhi this is the 19th of 21 Creta variants by price, ₹17,000 above the King Petrol AT. The same King kit starts at ₹1.58L less as the King Petrol MT; the extra here buys the Diesel with the 6-speed manual. There is no trim above King: money spent past this point buys powertrain, not equipment.

Hyundai Creta King: the questions people ask
Price, on-road total, engine and what this trim goes without.
- What is the price of the Hyundai Creta King Diesel MT?
- ₹18.86L, ex-showroom Delhi. That makes it 19th of 21 by price, ₹17,000 above the King Petrol AT.
- What is the on-road price of the Hyundai Creta King Diesel MT?
- Expect ₹19,94,640 in Itanagar and ₹22,76,088 in Bengaluru. Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so the identical car costs ₹2,81,448 more at one end of the country than the other. That is the sticker plus road tax, registration and the rest of the charges, across the 25 states we have verified. It does not include comprehensive own-damage cover, which every insurer prices differently.
- Which engine and gearbox does the Hyundai Creta King Diesel MT have?
- The Diesel, 116 PS, with the 6-speed manual. The maker's figure for it is 21.8 km/l.
- What features does the Hyundai Creta King Diesel MT get?
- The kit worth naming on this trim: ADAS (Level 2 (full suite)), 360° camera, Blind spot monitor, Premium sound system (Bose), Ventilated front seats and Front parking sensors.
- Is there anything above the King on the Hyundai Creta?
- No. King is the top of the Creta range, so money spent past this point buys a different engine or gearbox rather than more equipment.
- Is the King the right Creta to buy?
- That depends on where the value sits across the whole range rather than on this trim alone, and we work it out variant by variant on our Hyundai Creta which-variant page. The short version: pay for a step only where the kit it adds is kit you would actually use.
